What is your favourite metal band?

In Flames.

Always loved melodeath.

The Contortionist, datambientcombo.jpg

Hour of penance haven't heard anything heavier

Abba, cos they rock

Invent, Animate. Feel like I'm the only person fuckin with em.

Dying Fetus or Whitechapel

Rush

Sabaton, because Historical retellings are interesting to me.

The one with the cool logo

Abba vs Abbath. The battle of the scandinavians continue!

Ay me too. Or maybe Ghost

Parkway Drive, because they're good

Have to pick ONE?
Summoning.
It's like a mix between black metal and a decent fantasy-movie OST.
Granted, the singers are a bit of an aquired taste, but they write massive fucking songs, that you can listen to many a time.
They also have something of a unique sound. wich isn't common in todays world There are not many (ANY?!?!) bands that sound the same.

Vulvodynia and ingested.
Basically any slam

Insomnium and dark tranquility are also extremely good

Don't really like metal but Black Sabbath are pretty good.

trips of truth

Slipknot

If you write anything other than Meshuggah, you're either a virgin, or you're deaf

Acid Bath, only metal band that's been able to interest me

what how?

Helloween because they're awesome

Meshuggah because of aggression plus technicality

Korpiklaani , cause folk is awesome and they have songs about alcohol

I've seen most of those bands live, some multiple times. This makes me feel like a mainstream faggot

youtube.com/watch?v=3c41TkGlDl0

Children of Bodom because melodeath is best

Anal cunt because they sometimes tell the truth

aye
meh
i really like power metal, but helloween always sounded so generic and boring to me
ay

I really like Freedom Call. It was the first powermetal band i heard and i still love em.

I'm gonna go with Katatonia, because listening to their songs is a very enjoyable experience.

Do i really need a reason? Listen to Dealing With It!

Ensiferum. But I miss Jari.

>lack of death in this thread

Dying fetus or bolt thrower.

Honorable mentions: behemoth, deicide and Celtic frost

No wc but dying fetus kills

None of the shit """bands""" on that list.

Wtf i hate rammstein now

Forgot entombed cannibal corpse and obituary

After the burial.

Absurd and Leichenzug

Deafheaven because shoegaze + black metal is actually a pretty good mix.

Liturgy because HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY

Alcest because see Deafheaven.

Street Sects because pure unadulterated rage.

Does early Swans count as metal?

Megadeth
They are the best thing metallica ever created

Can't we all just shut the fuck up and get our dicks out?

Fuck deafheaven. Hipster faggot black metal. Also swans is great but definitely not metal.

Exodus, because cajun hell

Most underrated band ever, they deserve so much more attention.

Carcass because I love the mixture of brutality with tight musicianship and occasionally catchy melodies and second to that either The Black Dahila Murder or Pungent Stench

Fuck yes!

Dethklok, because why not?

Lamb of God, because I love Randys voice

Cerebral bore or vader.

Cerebral bore - vocals
Vader - vocals - guitar

Pierce The Veil

Black Sabbath, cuz I'm le satanist

In My Silence.

I'm in love with dark tranquility - lethe

Favorite right now: Animals as Leaders

They're pushing the genre to new heights.

IM A MEATEATER!

Iron Maiden

Katy Perry, because its fuck easy trolling metal fags

Best metal band in my opinion. I only like their first 4 albums with the rough vocals though. Not into the satan shit just love the music

>Hipster faggot black metal.
I agree with the first guy. Deafheaven is great and Sunbather is a great black metal record. Why does the black metal "community" hate anything that isn't totally generic? Swear to God, it's like you take black metal and change it even just a little bit and people shit their fucking pants because it's not kvlt enough.

Huey Lewis and the News.

Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

I really like Jungle Rot. Simple, angry, thrash, groovy. Based on this, what is another band/album I should check out?

Probably a toss up between Professor Skull, Diagnosis: Cancer, and Agrabah Massacre.

Have you by chance heard "It's Hip To Be Square"?

Amon Amarth, great sound, and interesting subject without annoying scream or vomit singing

Not at all... there are plenty of different subgenre of black metal that most of black metal fans appreciate. Deafheaven has made some great song but black metal is more than just music, it's a lifestyle and Deafheaven are far from representing what black metal truly is all about.

Fuck Bruce dickenson. Paul d'anno was way better, they should have kept him in. Iron maiden was shit after killers

lol no they're not, they're literally the same as any other prog metal band + 2 strings.
Jute gyte is best meal

Parkway drive, meshuggah, Rings of Saturn

Of course - it's their undisputed masterpiece. A song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends; it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

Sleep.

weird, never heard of BATLORD

>black metal is more than just music, it's a lifestyle
Stopped reading right in that area.

Easily Ne Obliviscaris.

children of bodom. It was one of the first really heavy bands I was introduced to and I think their first few albums are some of the best metal I have heard. Never get sick of them. Hellhounds and after though they got kind of dull

Yeah but there's no style it's just technical lame. Metal isn't just about being heavy

Deafheaven isn't supposed to be about living a black metal lifestyle. They're not representing anyone. They're just making music. Hell, even Kerry McCoy said it himself, "You can listen to black metal and still be a normal guy who has a job and loves his mother."

Don't think of it as a lifestyle; it's just a musical genre. You sound like one of those guys who says, "Bro...EDM is not just a genre bro....it's a LIFESTYLE bro..."

>It's not a phase, mom! This is who I am!

Death From Below
Late Termination

Well then you haven't fully grasped the concept of black metal, your problem.

Because I don't enjoy edgy screaming to the sounds of somebody torturing musical instruments, I enjoy a little bit of musical talent as well.
Though I was disappointed with Armageddon, Rekreatur and Erdentempel were both awesome.

>favourite

ya fruity faggot

hemorrhagic shock

Yes Black Sabbath. After that metal became gay beyond redemption.

Speaking of which, my second favourite metal band is Gay Beyond Redemption.

Choosing one is bullshit so here are my all time favorites:

Amon Amarth
Blood Stain Child
Dethklok
Ensiferum
Heaven Shall Burn
Kalmah
Powerwolf
Sabaton

I enjoy powerful shit that doesn't sound like a dying pig squealing in a trash can. Which means black metal, grindcore and such are useless to me. Though I like variety.

dandelion deathclock

Haha are you trolling? It's BATHORY pal. Something tells me you knew that...
Also I love Possessed as well because they are the perfect mix of thrash and death. Once again, not into the satanic occult shit, just like the music.

What do guys think of girls that listen to metal?

Satanic Sodomy

>Ensiferum
>Heaven Shall Burn
>Kalmah

my nigga.

i miss light this city. saw them once in san fran.

Alright, maybe lifestyle is too strong of a word. But black metal is definitely a lot more than just music. There is an ideology behind it, concepts that go well beyond music. Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing. They make good music but I wouldn't call it black metal.

Just FYI, I don't even considered myself a black metal addict or whatever. I played in a few bands, listen to many bands of that genre but I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music.

I saw this but didn't even realise it wasn't batlord until this.
kek'd hard

homicidal execution

Megadeth of course

cabin fever

donald dachau

hell's herbicide

Here

is all really good too. I was far more impressed with Sabaton's new album than the aforementioned disappointment. The key to all of these bands is that they bring something interesting to the table and they understand that metal isn't just about being loud and edgy.

Is there girls who listen to metal? The only girls I've met who's claimed they listens to metal listens to fucking emocore and shit, I don't like to call that shit metal.

Get out of here Cred Forums

MGLA, Aosoth, Windir, Cult of Fire, Arkhon Infaustus, Satanic Warmaster, Antaeus, Destroyer 666, Vektor and so on...

faggots

No, I'm talking about bands like in the picture? How do you feel about that?

demoniske diaré

gaping wound

Metallica, hated them to death, now I love them

apocapussylips

Deathspell Omega

Just the best black metal band.

Honorable mention: Opeth

anal unbirthing

Haha faggot you think you're some spooky demon or something. If your lifestyle is based around a genre of music, it's time to question your life

You, I like you! Blut Aus Nord as well. French scene is without a doubt one of the best BM scene at the moment.

game of kill

>Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing.
Oh. I thought you were implying that it's a bad thing. I was more annoyed with that than the fact that Deafheaven isn't really black metal, which, now that you've explained it the way you did, makes sense. Deafheaven is a lot closer to just really aggressive shoegaze than black metal.

Glad we could come to an agreement.

dark side of humanity

I'll repeat what I said afterwards:

"Alright, maybe lifestyle is too strong of a word. But black metal is definitely a lot more than just music. There is an ideology behind it, concepts that go well beyond music. Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing. They make good music but I wouldn't call it black metal.

metallica is the most generic metal band ever.

don't hate the flayer

melodramatic amputatee

Archspire because muh tech death.

They're just girls that listen to one of the genres I enjoy, big deal.

Ahah yes, it was just a misunderstanding. I do like what they do.

Some people think Tool is metal, but it isn't really, so Rammstein for sure

psychoasis

Agalloch.

All other bands need to step up

What? No Party Cannon?

scream of silence

empty eyesocket

bleeding guns murphy

Do all metal bands use the same fond when they write their name?

No you arent

cool if they actually listen to it

Acid Bath or Electric Wizard or Tool, if you want to call Tool metal.

ignominious insanity

>I was far more impressed with Sabaton's new album than the aforementioned disappointment.
Are you talking about Powerwolf? I think their latest album is actually better than anything Sabaton has done. I haven't even listened to anything other than that.

>The key to all of these bands is that they bring something interesting to the table and they understand that metal isn't just about being loud and edgy.
Well put, indeed.

human flesh sausage factory

Abba is my favorite blackened cockgrind deaththrashcore band ever

phascolarctos cinereus

Fucking Katelepsy man

Septic Flesh
They still active
I really like Titan, Communion, Summerian Daemons, The Great Mass and Revolution DNA
Plus, Titan shows they are still going strong
Can't wait for the new album

super mario bros '93

Why don't I see Avenged Sevenfold on this list?

Fukk yeh

Gojira

It'd be cool to know a girl who's a metalhead too.

Maybe Carnivore or Gehennah too.
FUKK POSERS TILL THEY'RE DEAD!

rabid rattlesnake

Because they fucking suck

What is the grooviest death metal that you enjoy?

prof. burps deathworks

Powerwolf and Sabaton.
Lel.

Wagakki Band might deserve to be mentioned. Traditional Japanese instruments are pretty fancy.

antifertility

>what do guys think of girls that listen to metal?
That they actually are posers and cringy.

Cirith Ungol

I bet you use "\m/", think metalheads are tolerant and I'm sure all of you think Wacken is the holy land.

undesirable decapitation

Cirith Ungol ReUnion man! I'm so stocked.

hot dog factory

No, I'm not talking about girls wo claim to be huge metalheads but only know highway to hell but still feel like having to boast about it. What I mean is girls who genuinely listen to all kinds of (good) metal but don't rub it in your face constantly.

satan's sermon

Amon Amarth

Saxon

Amazing first five albums
Driving bass lines
Authentic metal
Denim and leather album is perfect for the gym
It's like iron maiden but more raw
Lead Singer is cool guy and chats with fans
30 minute albums instead of self indulgent lengthy crap
Patriotic
For riding motor bikes

Why didn't someone mentioned Tank? Warfare? Heavy Load?
What are you guys? Fucking Posers?

tendinitis

Ghost!

My Girlfriend is a girl like this.

No,my friend, I was referring to Equilibrium. Powerwolf has yet to disappoint me.

A Day to Remember

Because they're amazing.

Lol my dad was one of the later touring guitarists for death.

Black Sabbath & Judas priest is god tier but Nevermore, Ensiferum, Tyr are pretty great also

Asking Alexandria

Iron maiden. I do really like amon amarth though

How's being 13?

Haggard
Sadly, no one knows them...

unwilling cremation

Because all the little kids are in school.

It's a toss up, Dragonforce or Suicidal Tendencies.

Bathory because Quorthon invented the atomsphere that other proto-black metal bands were missing, and because he invented the viking metal sound. This was then ruined by lots of awful Finnish bands who basically produced poor power/folk metal and labled it viking metal.
"Cough" Ensiferum "Cough"

If you mean Hagrid then yes I know him

Finntroll is top tier folk metal

sharptongue

Tough but I gotta go with Trivium

No, I mean the Metal Band Haggard

Fair point, i still enjoy shitty viking metal bands tho
(me)

>it fucking sucked. remember it, maaan.

Amon Amarth

Less than 1/2 of their albums though

Windir
>Most original choice ever

Thanks I do love me some judas priest especially their early stuff (bar Rocka Rolla) and painkiller, screaming for vengeance and defenders of the faith are also great. They are probably my second favourite band tied with death.

Well some of the music isnt of the genre, I'm gonna say Stuck In The Sound because fuck yall mainstream niggers.

Opeth. I even like their new stuff. Fuck, that band is amazing.

Oh yes.

Opeth or Ne Obliviscaris

Good choice.

Saw those guys last month. Pretty good, man.

Kauan
youtube.com/watch?v=6Ar2y1PyTWg

Burzum by far

Good choice man

Excuse me.

>girls that listen to metal
>That they actually are posers and cringy.

because boys fucking aren't maybe ?
And you forgot the edge

Blind Guardian, love the style of metal they produce

Aww yiii

Got any better suggestions?

Eluvetie, a good Swiss metal band, their live shows are so awesome

tool because danny carey

Dethklok

Electric Wizard
Cuz best riffs

Behemoth

entombed

Death. Cuz it's Death, what else to say.

Used to love metallica, but then I got bored of it, also the old cds sound like shit, even the remastered ones.
then moved to Rhapsody. but it kind of died when luca left the band, the new albums are shit. so I'm just listening the old ones.

Meshuggah. Because of the drums and vocals in Obzen

Well, Iron Maiden

Dethklok

i love these guys

Ebin

The original Black Sabbath because I'm an oldfag that listened to them growing up.

Also the original black sabbath becasue 4 first albums are perfect and because they are gods.
Btw not I'm not even close t obeeing an oldfag

The Neighbourhood, Hollywood Undead, The Used. Call me trash all you want, but fuck if I'll ever get tired of Day of the Dead.

Muh nigga.
Into The Legend isn't that terrible, but it's just generic power metal without Luca's style. Then again Luca's style recently has been pretty tragic as well (Prometheus)

Call me a fag but pantera or megadeth

...

Blood on the Dance Floor is great

I just have a personalized playlist with the songs I enjoy and some of them with edited out long talking parts (hint: Heroes of the Waterfalls' Kingdom)

> Dissection
Fuck yes.

Probably either Dissection or Shining for me. Dissection's work were masterpieces imo, even Reinkaos which seems to get a lot more hate than it deserves based off how it strayed from Black Metal in its presentation. Shining's range of song styles over the years has been interesting, drawing on everything from black metal to jazz and pop, and I find myself going back and re listening to them all the time. It's also one of a handful of bands that can draw out real emotion from me when listening to it. That and I find Niklas as a person very interesting.

Meshuggah because I'm not a nigger

Second pantera

I'm kinda a fan of the Swedish The Haunted. I'm pretty into their musical arrangement as a musician, and Dolving's vocals are pretty decent. My brother used to listen to them which is mainly why I do.
